The problem is that right-wingers don't compare Fox to MSNBC. They compare Fox to ABC, CBS, NBC, NPR, PBS and newspapers.
And that comparison is invalid. While some of those media have a left lean, Fox doesn't lean right -- it's a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Republican Party.
And it's deliberate. Just one piece of evidence: Fox News Radio actually is fair and balanced.
The problem is that Fox News isn't news but a propaganda tool that brainwashes willing victims, people with weak analytical skills who are angry and want to lash out, people who are fearful and seeking comfort, people who are demented and seek certainty and conformation, that there is a bubble reality inside of which they can find what they seek. Fox news confirms and strengthens everything that is irrational and dangerous about the worst of human emotions in the hope they will vote a certain way. Fox News is a disease just as was the German propaganda machine. And the Germans got their own awakening after 50 million deaths. There is a madness in the world and it is fear and the conservative brain has been enlarged to be sensitive to it. In the conservative brain that part that functions to keep thought rational and unaffected by fear has withered away.
The Republican party has been completely swept away by an alternate reality where no rational thought can reach them. They have become functionally insane and in complete and total denial. These delusional patriots and lovers of country have become its greatest threat and danger.
The only question for folk who can still reason with some facility, is how to address this danger. Remember that what these folk will fear is extermination. It is this fear that caused them to kill the Jews. And it is this fear they will project on you. One insane person is challenge enough, but what do you do when the insane are half a nation.
Now add to this the fact that liberals are ill equipped to handle this problem. They aren't alerted by fear, aren't paranoid, won't see the danger till it's too late. All the geese who could warn us have become friends of the barbarians. The sunny upbeat rosy glasses that liberals wear will make them easy victims of slaughter. Take a look at Obama, eaten alive because he was a nice guy who wanted to compromise and work together as one America. He is dealing with folk so insane with fear that all they can see to save themselves is total power. It is madness and fear that create the One Ring.
So Fox News and right winged radio is and are not a news channel(s) or entertainment. They are enemies of the nation.
The question is what to do about them and the madness they create and maybe before it's too late if that date hasn't already passed. Liberal tolerance is a wonderful thing, but so is intolerance of the propagation of world destroying mental illness.
Something I would suggest needs some thinking.
